Anomalous C IV and Si IV resonance lines in 36 Lyncis
Journal Article

· Publ. Astron. Soc. Pac.; (United States)
Of the anomalously strong C IV and Si IV resonance lines found in the UV spectrum of the chemically peculiar star 36 Lyncis, the C IV lines near 1550 A are noted to be absent in about 40 other middle or late B-type main sequence stars. Also found is a peculiar intensity ratio between C IV and Si IV lines, where the former are stronger. The continuous energy distribution of 36 Lyn in the UV region fits with those of late B-type stars, and the presence of a hot, chromospheric or coronal gas is suggested. 14 references.
